However, only one vote counts for the winner. That vote belongs to UC Davis scientist Paul Knoepfler. Knoepfler will weigh comments
from his readers, but reserves the ultimate
decision. Knoepfler expects to post more information on the selections sometime soon. You can advise him about your views through links on his Web site, The Niche.
